In coordination with efforts led by US senators, Europe is preparing to adopt the toughest sanctions in three years under French proposals, which will directly drain the resources that allow Vladimir Putin to wage his war, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said.

According to him, the sanctions will affect oil revenues, financial players from Russia and other countries.

"We want Vladimir Putin to finally agree to a ceasefire, because we have seen that since President Trump proposed a 30-day ceasefire, Russia's strikes on Ukraine have increased fivefold. This cannot continue, it must stop.

Moreover, Vladimir Putin is no longer making progress on the military front; he is content to drop missiles and drones on residential areas, causing numerous civilian casualties. We intend to force him to retreat completely," Barrot said.
